They've all been fine, although a couple do not have musical signals above 20kHz (piano solo recordings, one an old analogue recording from the '60's, and a newer all digital one). You can check what you've bought with various spectrograph SW apps. However, as others have noted, hi-rez recording is merely one element in the final product, and other factors, such as microphone type and placement, can also affect SQ - sometimes decisively! BTW, in the classical world, I don't think there's the problem of dynamic compression in the masterings that I've read listeners complaining about in the pop world.Getting back to HD Tracks, I've been happy with everything I've bought there and plan to continue buying from them, although, since I have a preference for multi-channel recordings, I'm disappointed that HD Tracks has never offered that option, especially since other sites (The Classical Shop, iTrax) have been offering multi-channel downloads for years.
